The Capital Region Resource Recovery Centre

Taggart Miller Environmental is proposing to develop an integrated waste management facility for commercial waste in the Ottawa area.

We anticipate that the facility - Capital Region Resource Recovery Centre - will recycle 43-57% of the waste it receives.

That's up to five times more than the 12-14% that is being recycled today.

The project will include recovery facilities for paper, metals and
plastics, as well as facilities for construction and demolition
recycling, contaminated soils recovery, and an anaerobic digester
for organic materials. The project will also include a landfill, where non-recyclable material will be disposed of.

If approved, this project would set a new standard for how we manage waste in Ontario. The site is located near the Boundary Road exit of the 417 in the City of Ottawa.

Taggart Miller submitted its Environmental Assessment to the
Ministry of Environment and Climate Change on January 2, 2015. The EA is under review for public and agency comment until
February 20, 2015.

Project benefits:
Recycling three to five times more than the Ontario average
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions
Producing renewable energy from anaerobic digester
Creating 80-100 new long-term jobs
Injecting hundreds of millions of dollars into the local economy
Increasing municipal tax revenue
No government subsidies required
Establishing community fund to support community initiatives
Hosting a centre for education and research on responsible waste management
Making Ottawa one of Canada's leaders in waste diversion
